Kim Davis is the GOP’s New Version of Joe The Plumber: Always Kinship With Stupid

Much like Joe the Plumber during the 2008 race, Kim Davis has become the new folk hero for Republican dingbats. Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has thrown his support behind Davis. Who didn’t see that coming?

Huckabee has gone public with his support on MSNBC and Twitter. Davis is part of the ultra-religious fringe that staunchly opposes same-sex marriage, and Huckabee has further established himself as the leader of that fringe. He’s reportedly scheduled to visit Davis in jail. She was jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples in Kentucky.
